Good luck! Just know that “howdy” you can throw out- we don’t really say it in Texas at all and I think if we do it is in jest. Come visit us when it cools off here- Texas is so hot right now.
Not really an Insult but more of an inclination that someone needs the blessing. Like if someone is bout to go do something stupid you'd say bless their heart as in they need it cause they're clearly stupid.
Perhaps you grew up none the wiser because you never had opportunity to learn the true meaning due to your grandmothers not having the heart to tell you after saying it to you for so many years.
I'm Persian but enjoy listening to the nuances between different southern accents. I can tell which city are my compatriots from based on the different accents they speak and dialects which are so distinct and interesting. local vernacular and dictions have diverged a lot through centuries
Me, an Spanish dude trying to learn something useful at 3:12 am during final tests so I can impress my texan tinder date lmao saludos desde España, amigo!
You don't learn the Spanish that's used around here from any book. It's mixed up Informal border border Spanish with extra words emulating some English words and lots of profanity. An educated person who speaks proper Castilian Spanish may be fully unimpressed by it's use.
Im from brazil, but i want to speak texan english(my favourite) like a texan, and brother, you're helping me a lot with that video. Bless your heart...
The Texas accent in Austin died out after the Baby Boomers, unless you live in south Austin. As a kid in 1970’s and 1980’s NW Austin suburbs, most of us talked like nothing or from Southern California. Richard Linklatter has always been very realistic of his portrayal of younger folks in the Austin area.
Linkletter rules. Youre right tho. Austin turned into California and sounds like it. Gotta get further out west amongst the small towns, ranches, and dance halls n down into hunting ranch territory...or back over here round the piney woods.
I have a weird mix of an Appalachian accent, and a Texan accent. My mom is from Appalachia and my dad is from texas, so I’ve picked up both accents and mixed them. I use y’all and other Texan words, but a also use pop as a word for soda.
Damn. Must be a tough life...probably a high risk of redneck genetics in the Texas side and maybe some barefoot banjo stuff with some in-breeding and/or squeelin like a pig on the other. Damn. You ain't got a chance in hell. Lol!
2:11 That is actually something you will get out west in states like Colorado or near the rockies, they will deliberatly use the 'ING' in the endings like "DrivING", "GoING" or HikING".
Wull, ahrahtsir! Glad y'all gone teach us some Texan. I was fixin' to pass own some'a muh own Texas towlk bahfo-ur it goes code in muh manned. 'N ah love those Texanisms you done tode us. Nah. Have you a nass die!
Whenever I hear someone say Y'all in reference to a single person like this, it just shuts down my ability to process anything they say after that. Bless Your Little Heart! What is wrong with you is no little thing.
In fact the first time language was studied in a modern way that was the work of. Chomsky with the computer linguistics. It showed many diphtong and vowel shifts in Indogermanic
I hate to disagree but... I have always used yonder as directional and not distance. "How do I get to El Paso?" "Oh it's over yonder, 'bout a thousand miles." Also, Bless Your Heart (or Bless Your Little Heart) is sometimes an expression of care and concern, depending on who you are talking to and what you are talking about. Typically (but not always) if they go higher in pitch to an upper register when they say it then the meaning is concern, where as going deeper in pitch to a lower register is a sign of sarcasm.
awesome. i go to texas almost yearly cause the inlaws (SA) , my sis. in law husband its a real texan ..i would love to surprise him with some local lingo..have to work harder on the accent thou..by the way i love texas
Just for your information not all Texan’s have a southern accent, own several firearms, drive a pickup truck, walk around with a cowboy hat and chew tobacco. There are lots of Texans who live in the larger cities who are nothing like this.
I have the weirdest accent my dad's parents where Texan he grew up in Indonesia and my mom grew up in small town Oklahoma and I've lived in Texas my whole life so I got a weird mix of Oklahoma a bit of my dads more mixed accent and my schools more pure Texan accents
The State is so large there are a lot of accents. Actors never sound real, there’s East Texas, west Texas, big towns, small places, and we all sound different. Can’t box us in!
@@suellenhintz3939 I think east Texas is easiest to recognize. It's got a sort of childish and uneducated feel to it. (I'm from east Texas I can say it.)
Bless your heart is not always an insult. For example it can be used endearingly toward small children you think are adorable, eg: " oh look at them, aren't they adorable! Bless their little hearts." Generally something that a grandmother might say. A mother might say this to her child who she lost lost track of for a long time to express relief and joy when the child finally reappears. I think that it is generally seen as an insult when directed towards adults in the proper context because of this patronizing. element.
That's okay, my German isn't the best (as you can see in this episode ua-cam.com/video/URlry0pU46Y/v-deo.html). Contact me offline at Craig@RealEstateInAustin.com.
bit funny how I can find zero real texan accents except people in different states talkin from a stereotype, and then we have a austin texas tutorial. No offence but even San Antonio has a heavier accent than Austin which by the way has become the LA of texas.
Well… it’s not really used the way he used it? I mean… it is… but, not as likely. "All y'all need to step back 10 feet!" "Ok… ALL Y'ALL ARE CRAZY!" "If I can get all y'all to be careful you don't hit your head on this!" "If all y'all think I'm gonna go waste my time…..?" "All y'all gonna remember this?" "I'm gonna get all y'all for this!" "I gotta feed all y'all?" These are verified… bonafide… authenticated… certified, guaranteed ways that you will hear… "all y'all".
Imma texan and i have never said yonder or used bless your heart as an insult, (most people talk using the rest of this though) but u don’t have to nobodys rlly gonna be judging y’all
Depends on where they are. In Austin....no. nobody will care. They just want to know if you have any weed and to tell you that they're vegan. If you're holding or show the slightest hint of interest in their vegan superiority, you gotchu a new best friend for the next few hours.
It's more like… "all y'all heading to the broken spoke?" I don't know what the hell he was talking about? If I heard somebody say it the way that he did… I would not attend the broken spoke without back-up.
Hi Sonia! Do you speak as fast as Texans speak? And with the mouth so close? If the answer is yes… I want to talk with you, pls! I need to practice and understand people from Texas for my job! 😁
@@marianolancellotti3855 I do talk like I’m from Texas, but it’s not something I think about, I just do it naturally. Do I talk fast, well no not in my opinion . I guess it depends on where your from, if your from Alabama, yes I talk fast, if you’re from New York, no I talk slow. It sounds kind of southern with a twist. In my opinion, people in Austin no longer sound like they are from Texas, they all Sound like transplants. This guy sounds like a transplant too, because I have heard very few people in my life say all y’all. Y’all is plural, it just means two or more.

Yonder equals the Dutch word 'ginder". And it comes linguisticallly close as y'all can see.
